Approximately 150 songs were written for the GD by members of the band. If we assume the accuracy of the statistics printed on that t-shirt (referenced by a previous poster) this means that around one-third of the songs they played were Grateful Dead originals.

Expertise

Exensive knowledge and insight on this historic band; I saw 209 Dead concerts between 1977 and 1995 in 23 different states plus some foreign countries. Started collecting tapes in mid seventies, and saw Jerry Garcia Band about 50 times between 1977 and 1994 also. Ask away.
